Chapter 796 – Chapter 786: Bloody Day (Part One)
Mount St. Lucia, the headquarters of the Monster Research Institute.
A pitch-black mountain path snaked like a snake, leading straight to the peak of the mountain. On the square at the peak of the mountain stood sculptures of all kinds of ferocious monsters, as if they were from another world. Some familiar monsters could be seen among them, such as the splitter, the magic dragon.., legendary monsters such as the bat musician had different postures and looked lifelike as they looked down at the mountain path outside the square. Anyone who came here from the mountain path would have a terrible feeling of being stared at by many monsters.
Behind these ferocious monster sculptures was a dark building. No matter how brilliant the Sunny Day was, this place was gloomy and dead silent. All the light seemed to have been absorbed by the sculptures on the square, leaving only the gloom.
In one of the buildings, there were piles of books. This was the library of the Monster Research Institute’s Headquarters and also the place where the director stayed all year round. It was more like an office than the council hall.
“Director, there is a letter from the palace.”A shadow wearing a dark purple robe and a silver hood quietly came to the ground floor of the library. He whispered in front of a curved bookshelf that was four to five meters long.
There was an old man with silver hair sitting on the bookshelf. He was wearing a brown scholar’s robe and presbyopia glasses. He was holding a book with a dark red cover. There was a string of letters on the book. If Dudian saw it, he would recognize it, this was the English of the old era. The silver-haired old man was reading the book as if he was reading the contents.
The silver-haired old man looked up at the shadow and took the letter. It was a secret letter. He took out the letter and looked at it. There was a trace of surprise in his eyes, “The palace has been attacked?”
The person who was covered in shadow said in a low voice, “I just received the news. The palace has been attacked. The news in the palace is still unknown. The intruders are inside. His Highness Ulita’s whereabouts are unknown. Does this letter ask us to go and reinforce them?”
“I see.”The silver-haired old man shook his finger and caught the letter. He handed it to the torch beside him and burned it into ashes, “The letter was not sent by His Highness, but by the person who attacked the palace. He said that His Highness colluded with the intruders outside the wall to create a mess of corpses. The loss of the God’s corpse was planned by His Highness. Ha, this person is thick-skinned enough to convict little ulita as soon as he drove her away. He even asked us to cooperate and capture her.”
The shadow was slightly startled and seemed to be relieved. “So, the person who attacked the palace was not an intruder who robbed the god’s corpse. I didn’t expect that someone would take advantage of the situation. Chief, are we going to help His Highness Ulita get rid of this person?”
The silver-haired old man put down the book in his hand, he muttered, “Commander Amos and Little Ulita are guarding the palace. Both of them are masters of the inner wasteland. The fact that this person could defeat them and make it difficult for little ulita to fight against them shows that he is also a rather difficult master of the inner wasteland. If Little Ulita’s ‘Lightstrider’magic marks were ranked in the divine wall of Sylvia, they would probably be on par with the Magic Dragon. The person who could defeat her is at least on the same level as the dragon mother who did not activate the power of the ice magic. With the current strength of our institute, even if we wanted to help, we would not be able to do anything.”
Yin Ying understood and nodded. “This person has been in hiding for a long time. It just so happened that we were fighting for the weakest moment with the intruders and he suddenly attacked. He should have prepared for a long time. What a despicable person!”
The silver-haired old man nodded, he said indifferently, “But it is precisely because he is despicable that he has succeeded now. We don’t need to worry about this matter. The intruders are very likely still hiding here. From the success of the luring plan last time, we can see that these intruders will not let this matter rest. They should take revenge and slaughter all of our people here. This is the most troublesome matter.”
Shadow was stunned for a moment. “They haven’t left yet? How is that possible? But it has been more than a month, and they haven’t received any news at all. Aren’t they in a hurry to report back?”
“If they have already left with the god corpse, I reckon it won’t be so peaceful for the next few days.”The silver-haired old man seemed to have thought of something, he said, “I reckon it won’t be long before his highness comes here to ask for help. I Won’t see her anymore. This child has spoiled me since young, so it’s not good for me to reject her face to face. It’s better for you to go and say it. Let her wait quietly for her father’s return and rest here for the time being.”
The shadow nodded and said doubtfully, “Director, since you know that they have not left, why don’t we take this opportunity to take back the god’s corpse from their hands?”
“Too difficult.”The silver-haired old man sighed, “We have tried our best,”he said. “Leave the rest to fate. If it doesn’t work out, just ask the Kingdom of God to send another one. It’s just that we’ll have to suffer a little in the middle.”
..
..
The Secret Letter of the royal family was sent to all the nobles in the cities. Now that the chaos of the dead had subsided, and it was the limiters who sent the secret letter, the communication speed was extremely fast. In just half a day, the message could be sent to all the nobles.
“Dudian? Who is he? How dare he call himself the Lord of the Wall?”
“It is ridiculous that we should be asked to assist in the arrest of the Princess!”
“Her Highness colluded with intruders to steal the god’s corpse? Hehe, what a load of nonsense!”
“This person’s surname is quite strange. It seems that there is no such surname among the three great demon-hunter families. He was able to send the news through the secret letter of the royal family. He must have taken control of the palace. According to the letter, the whereabouts of the palace master is unknown. Her Highness the princess has been valiant and good at fighting since young. At such a young age, she has long been on the same level as those old guys of the demon-hunter family. How could she not be able to do anything to this person? How Strange!”
When the nobles of the various cities received the secret letters, they were all in an uproar. They immediately contacted each other to confirm the authenticity of the news. Very quickly, they unified the source of the news and shared the information network that the earl had planted in the royal city, they received the latest news from the royal palace.
When the news was sent back, the nobles were once again in an uproar. They did not expect that the royal palace would actually be occupied by someone without anyone knowing. and the legitimate princess had actually become a wanted criminal at this moment!
Even in the streets and alleys of the royal city, the military had put up wanted posters!
It was too sudden and too fast. All the nobles felt like they were in a dream.
“Let me go to the succession ceremony? Humph, wishful thinking!”
“Quickly find out who this Dudian is and where he came from.”
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Dudian had breakfast in the warm and luxurious restaurant. He estimated that the time was about right to give these people a buffer time. It was time for them to express their attitudes.
“The Institute of Monsters hasn’t replied to the letter so far. I don’t think they are going to pay attention to it. Since they have chosen to wait and see, I will let you have a good look.”Dudian walked out of the palace accompanied by Saul. He looked at the thousands of steps in front of him, although the corpses had been treated but there was still a strong smell of blood in the gap between the steps.
